I would like to thank James Dykes Funeral Service for their amazing commitment to our family prior to and throughout the day of my mother's funeral. They communicated every detail of the whole process. I would like to thank Wendy in particular for assisting and reassuring the family every step of the way. We are so very grateful for your support and what an amazing service overall. Thank you again !!

Excellent service, Wendy and her team are exceptional. They have done funerals for both my parents within the last couple of years and I cannot find any fault in their work. Definitely recommend, well worth the five star rating.

I cannot thank all at James Dykes for everything and praise them more highly. All staff excelled in every aspect of funeral care. There was nothing that they did not exceed our expectations tenfold in making the whole process so much less stressful. A professional, exceptional service without flaw from every member of staff. Thank you to Wendy and all the highly skilled team at Janes Dykes.

Wendy was very easy to talk to and put us at ease, explaining everything clearly. All our email queries were answered quickly too. On the day, both the funeral director and driver were professional but also friendly without being invasive. Thank you to all involved.
